To establish single-cell genomics competency in Thailand, with support from the Sanger Institute-EBI Single-Cell Genomics Centre, UK.
To provide an opportunity for Thai scientists to get exposed to the forefront of Systems Biology research by spending time working at the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, a perfect set-up for nurturing young Systems Biologists, and via regular contacts with top researchers in different fields.
To provide a platform further and stronger links between the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and research institutes in Thailand.
To elucidate whether our TF-nucleosome interaction model predicted in yeast (Charoensawan et al, Mol Cell 2010) also applies in higher eukaryotic systems.
To investigate how the interplay of TFs and nucleosome are resolved at the single cell level.
